I suffer terribly from pollen & mold & grass allergies. It puts me in a funk where I can't think straight and does indeed cause me worsening depression. I've known this for years and the only thing that usually helps me through besides Zyrtec & Claritin is Adderall so I can stay alert and clear minded.
I'm currently trying immunotherapy (allergy shots). So far I get 4 shots a week and I think they are helping my allergies. I do feel very tired for 48 hours after getting the shots.
So, yes, yes, yes, I totally know for sure there is a correlation between bad allergies and depression and ability to function.
